Classical Music Recommendations (:

[goh4]

I'd love some new classical music to listen to (:
I mostly listen to pieces by string quartets and orchestras, and I love to be able to hear double bass and cello, but I'm happy to try anything you recommend (:
My 2 favourite pieces at the moment're Pachelbel's Canon and Firedance (:

[Cat.on.the.Hill]

Hmm, i recommend Chopin, especially the nocturnes. If you like string quartets try Schubert 's the trout, and Debussy's only string quartet. Hope that gives you plenty smile

But hey, if you like Baroque, then go with something with some blood in it:

Bach - St. Matthew Passion - Kommt, ihr Töchter

[sweetcherrie11]

Pathetique and Moonlight Sonata by Beethoven
Arabesque and Clair de Lune by Debussy
and try some Chopin and Liszt's pieces (I can't remember specific ones that I like, but they are awesome composers)

I agree, they are good, but the comment was less about their composition talents and more about your spelling of their names. xd
